Silhouette Inspiration – A/W ’16-17 – “THE TURTLENECK”
For quite some time now, high necks have been reigning the runways of every major fashion show, so it comes as no surprise that the turtleneck – a classic style, is dominating the sweater and knits classification, this season.
Appealing to both womenswear and young contemporary looks, turtlenecks are either slim-fitted or more on the relaxed side with oversized shapes and extra long sleeves.
Bluemarine and Creatures of Comfort presented fitted versions that can be easily layered and paired with anything. Jonathan Simkhai chose to go with a thick knit dress in white that drew focus to the snug turtleneck while TSE showed us a perfect example of the standing turtleneck, which is more rigid in structure.
Other design details included rounded shoulders and slits on the sides of the knit.
